Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee
Description
This folder is composed of a decade's worth of documents produced by SNCC, and, as a result, it reveals many of the ways in which the organization evolved throughout its existence. The collection begins with the "Statement of Purpose from the Founding of SNCC" and continues with a series of conference agendas and reports which provide insight into the priorities of the organization in the early 1960s. It, then, concludes with a series of written statements by Stokely Carmichael and H. Rap Brown, which portray the organizations increasing shift towards Black Nationalism in the latter half of the decade. The folder also contains a number of press releases, which primarily cover the events associated with the William Moore Memorial Walk and the civil rights demonstrations in Danville, Virginia, in 1963.
